This is cool, maybe "target left arm" implies that it's your left, when targetting them and you're facing each other. So, their right arm.

Btw, I recently did my first patches with ghidra. Is there any way to avoid jumping into a code cave by shifting all the instructions up then updating any statements referring to those memory locations? Seems like it should be simple enoigh in theory, but I didn't find an implementation on a cursory search. Could probably code up a plugin pretty easily.

Oh man this was my biggest pet peeve with mechcommander as a kid, thanks for fixing it!
